Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of human milk fortifier(HMF)addition at different time points on the growth,development and the incidence of complications in very low birth weight(VLBW)infants.Methods A total of 93 VLBW infants admitted into Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Tianjin Central Hospital of Obste-trics and Gynecology from January to September 2015 with more than 80%of total milk intake during hospitalization,excluding those who had severe asphyxia or abandoned treatment and died,were collected.The included cases were divided into 2 groups by using completely randomized grouping method,early fortification group(n=48)and delayed fortification group(n=45)adding HMF with the enteral intake of 50 mL/(kg·d)and 100 mL/(kg·d),respectively.The outcomes included growth development and the incidence of complications during hospitalization.Then,t test and chi-square test of independent samples were used for statistical analysis.Results There was significant difference in the weight growth rate between the 2 groups,and the growth rate of early fortification group and delayed fortification group were(15.4±2.4)g/(kg·d)and(13.6±2.3)g/(kg·d),respectively(t=3.043,P=0.004).There was no significant difference in height growth rate,head circumference growth rate,weight at 34 weeks postmenstrual age,time of recovering birth weight and parenteral nutrition,hospitalization duration,body weight,body length,head circumference at discharge and the incidence of extrauterine growth retardation between the 2 groups(all P>0.05).There was no statistical difference in incidence of feeding intolerance,necrotizing enterocolitis,nosocomial infection,retinopathy of prematurity,bronchopulmonary dysplasia between the 2 groups(all P>0.05).Conclusions HMF with enteral intake of 50 mL/(kg·d)contributes to weight gain rate in VLBW infants during hospitalization,but not to the increase in the incidence of complications.
